Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Gummilager mit einer auf einer einem Kraftfahrzeug abgewandten Seite angeordneten Aufnahmeöffnung zur Aufnahme eines an einem Schalldampfer befestigten Haltestabes, mit am Kraftfahrzeug befestigten Metallwinkeln zwischen denen ein Bolzen befestigt ist, der das Gummimaterial auf einer dem Kraftfahrzeug zugewandten Seite durchquert, wobei die Aufnahmeöffnung von einer Gummibuchse gebildet ist, die in einer Ausnehmung des Gummilagers begrenzt beweglich angeordnet ist, wobei die Ausnehmung um die Gummibuchse einen Freiraum bildet.The invention relates to a rubber bearing with a receiving opening arranged on a side facing away from a motor vehicle for receiving a holding rod fastened to a muffler, with metal angles fastened to the motor vehicle, between which a bolt is fastened which crosses the rubber material on a side facing the motor vehicle, the receiving opening is formed by a rubber bushing which is arranged to be movable in a limited manner in a recess of the rubber bearing, the recess forming a free space around the rubber bushing.

Es sind die unterschiedlichsten Formen und Konstruktionen von Gummilagern bekannt. Werden Gummilager für den Halt von Schalldämpfern bei Kraftfahrzeugen eingesetzt, so ist von Bedeutung, daß diese zum einen Schwingungen und Erschütterungen ausreichend aufnehmen und zum anderen eine hohe Stabilität und Haltbarkeit besitzen. Da diese Forderungen einander teilweise widersprechen, ist auf die Art der Konstruktion größten Wert zu legen.A wide variety of shapes and designs of rubber bearings are known. If rubber mounts are used to hold mufflers in motor vehicles, it is important that they absorb vibrations and shocks sufficiently and have high stability and durability. This one Partly contradicting claims is of great importance to the type of construction.

Aus EP 32 00 88 ist ein Gummilager bekannt, bei dem der Schalldämpfer in einer Gummibuchse eingehängt wird, die am äußeren Rand des Gummilagers durch seitliche Stege gehaltert ist. Diese Aufhängung schützt den Schalldämpfer nur unzureichend vor vertikalen Schwingungen.A rubber mount is known from EP 32 00 88, in which the muffler is suspended in a rubber bushing which is held on the outer edge of the rubber mount by lateral webs. This suspension does not adequately protect the muffler from vertical vibrations.

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, ein Gummilager der genannten Art so zu verbessern, daß bei einfacher Konstruktion und Herstellung Schwingungen und Erschütterungen optimal aufnehmbar sind und hierbei eine hohe Stabilität und Haltbarkeit gegeben ist.The object of the invention is to improve a rubber bearing of the type mentioned so that vibrations and shocks can be optimally absorbed with simple construction and manufacture, and a high level of stability and durability is provided.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, daß die Gummibuchse durch mindestens zwei armförmige gekrümmte Stege in etwa senkrecht zur Aufhängeachse gelagert ist, die mit einem Ende an der Gummibuchse und mit dem anderen Ende am äußeren Rand der Ausnehmung angeformt sind und daß die Gummibuchse auf der den Winkeln abgewandten Seite durch einen weiteren Steg am Rand des Gummilagers fest ist, der eine größere Breite aufweist als die der armförmigen Stege.This object is achieved in that the rubber bush is supported by at least two arm-shaped curved webs approximately perpendicular to the suspension axis, which are integrally formed on the rubber bushing and with the other end on the outer edge of the recess and that the rubber bushing on the Angled side is fixed by a further web on the edge of the rubber bearing, which has a greater width than that of the arm-shaped webs.

Die zusätzlichen gekrümmten Stege erhöhen die Stabilität der Gummibuchse zu den Seiten hin, ohne die Aufnahmefähigkeit von Schwingungen und Erschütterungen zu verringern, sodaß die Wirkung des Gummilagers im Abfangen von Schwingungen und Erschütterungen sehr gut ist und hierbei immer noch eine hohe Stabilität und Haltbarkeit gegeben ist.The additional curved webs increase the stability of the rubber bushing to the sides without reducing the absorption capacity of vibrations and shocks, so that the effect of the rubber bearing in the interception of vibrations and shocks is very good and there is still a high stability and durability.

Von besonderem Vorteil ist hierbei, wenn die Gummibuchse auf der den Winkeln abgewandten Seite durch einen weiteren Steg am Rand des Gummilagers fest ist, der eine größere Breite aufweist als die der armförmigen Stege.It is particularly advantageous if the rubber bushing is fixed on the side facing away from the angles by a further web on the edge of the rubber bearing, which has a greater width than that of the arm-shaped webs.

Das Gummilager kann bei verschiedensten Kraftfahrzeugen mit unterschiedlichen Abständen der Gewindebohrung befestigt werden, wenn die in den Metallwinkeln zum Befestigen am Kraftfahrzeug angeordneten Öffnungen Langlöcher sind.The rubber mount can be fastened in a wide variety of motor vehicles with different distances between the threaded bore if the openings arranged in the metal angles for fastening to the motor vehicle are elongated holes.

Ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung ist in Zeichnungen dargestellt und wird im folgenden näher beschrieben. Es zeigen:

  • Figur 1: Eine Seitenansicht,
  • Figur 2: eine Stirnansicht,
  • Figur 3: eine Unteransicht.
An embodiment of the invention is shown in drawings and will be described in more detail below. Show it:
  • Figure 1: A side view,
  • FIG. 2: an end view,
  • Figure 3: a bottom view.

Das Gummilager 1 weist einen Gummiblock 2 auf mit zwei zueinander parallelen Seitenflächen 3 und zwei Stirnseiten 4.The rubber bearing 1 has a rubber block 2 with two mutually parallel side surfaces 3 and two end faces 4.

In dem dem Kraftfahrzeug zugewandten Bereich ist der Block 2 von einem metallenen Bolzen 5 durchqert, der parallel zu den Seitenflächen 3 liegt und an beiden Stirnseiten 4 austritt. An den Enden des Bolzens 5 ist jeweils ein Metallwinkel 6 befestigt, der Langlöcher 7 besitzt, um Schrauben aufnehmen zu können, mit denen das Gummilager am Kraftfahrzeug angeschraubt wird. Hierbei kann der Abstand der Schrauben aufgrund der Langlöcher 7 zueinander unterschiedlich sein, sodaß das Gummilager an Befestigungsstellen angeschraubt werden kann, deren Gewindebohrungen unterschiedliche Abstände zueinander haben.In the area facing the motor vehicle, the block 2 is traversed by a metal bolt 5 which is parallel to the side surfaces 3 and exits at both end faces 4. A metal bracket 6 is fastened to the ends of the bolt 5, which has elongated holes 7 in order to be able to accommodate screws with which the rubber bearing is screwed onto the motor vehicle. Here, the spacing of the screws can be different from one another due to the elongated holes 7, so that the rubber bearing can be screwed onto fastening points, the threaded bores of which are at different distances from one another.

In dem dem Kraftfahrzeug abgewandten Bereich ist im Material des Lagers 1 eine Ausnehmung 8 eingebracht, die außenseitig von einem teilkreisförmigen Steg 9 umgeben ist, der den Rand der Ausnehmung 8 bildet. In dieser Ausnehmung 8 ist eine Gummibuchse 10 angeordnet, die mit einem unteren breiten Steg 11 am Steg bzw. Rand 9 angeformt ist.In the area facing away from the motor vehicle, a recess 8 is made in the material of the bearing 1, which is surrounded on the outside by a part-circular web 9 which forms the edge of the recess 8. In this recess 8, a rubber bushing 10 is arranged, which is formed with a lower wide web 11 on the web or edge 9.

Darüber hinaus ist die Gummibuchse 10 im oberen, dem Kraftfahrzeug zugewandten Bereich durch zwei armförmige gekrümmte Stege 12 am Rand der Ausnehmung 8 und damit am Steg 9 befestigt. Hierbei sind die Stege 12 mit dem einen Ende an der Gummibuchse 10 und dem anderen äußeren Ende am Steg bzw. Rand 9 angeformt. Block 2, Buchse 10 und die Stege 11, 12 sind damit einstückig aus Gummi geformt, wobei alle Teile klappsymmetrisch zu einer Achse 13 liegen, die parallel zu den Seitenflächen 3 und senkrecht zum Bolzen 5 angeordnet ist.In addition, the rubber bushing 10 is in the upper area facing the motor vehicle through two arm-shaped curved webs 12 at the edge of the recess 8 and thus attached to the web 9. Here, the webs 12 are formed with one end on the rubber bushing 10 and the other outer end on the web or edge 9. Block 2, bush 10 and the webs 11, 12 are thus formed in one piece from rubber, all parts being symmetrical about an axis 13 which is arranged parallel to the side surfaces 3 and perpendicular to the bolt 5.

Die Gummibuchse 10 bildet eine innere zylindrische Aufnahmeöffnung 14, in der ein Haltestab gelagert ist, der außen an einem Schalldämpfer vorsteht.The rubber bushing 10 forms an inner cylindrical receiving opening 14, in which a holding rod is mounted, which projects on the outside of a silencer.
